About our wedding paella catering in Wootton
Mixed diets are easy at a paella wedding: every paella is cooked separately, so vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free and halal guests eat the same kind of meal as everyone else. Whether it’s parties after a register office wedding and vow renewals and civil ceremonies, we can cook Spanish desserts, a paella wedding breakfast and table tapas for your guests.
Near Wootton, weddings are often in fields, barns or gardens. Live paella is made for that: no kitchen, just a level, sheltered spot. Let us know about access and ground. Timings are planned around your event, whether that is speeches, a lunch break or a festival schedule.

What wedding paella catering costs
Every event is priced individually, based on a few main things:
- Waiting and bar staff
- The length of service
- Chicken, vegetable or premium seafood
- Travel, parking and access
Extras such as tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are priced separately, so you only pay for what you want.
What to tell us
To check availability and price, we need:
- Which courses you have in mind
- Expected numbers
- The venue or postcode
- Any dietary needs and allergies
A detailed enquiry gets a more accurate quote: the venue, the timings, the courses you’d like and any extras. When you are ready, fill in our quote form.
Why live cooking beats a buffet
Food vans can create long queues. Paella pans serve many guests quickly. There is no one-size-fits-all price for live paella. A garden party lunch and a full wedding menu are very different jobs. We itemise everything in your quote.

Step by step
Service is quick: we serve straight from the pan, so large groups are fed quickly. Afterwards we clear our cooking area away. For a summer wedding in Wootton, the sun sets at about 9:30pm in late June and about 7:10pm in late September, which means evening paella is usually served in daylight in June and July. Later in the year, plan lighting: in December it is dark by about 3:55pm.
- You tell us your date, venue, guest numbers and how you picture the day.
- We build the menu course by course and send a quote.
- We agree timings with you and your venue, including speeches and photos.
